Honda’s Oil Alert system helps to prevent engine seizure due to low oil. The system consists of an oil level sensor inside the crankcase. When the oil reaches a level that is too low for safe operation the engine warns you or stops automatically. All these features will help you look after your engine for optimum performance.
